    I have an even better idea. We should connect all of the defense systems, including nukes, to an AI. It’ll be a great network across the sky using starlink satellites. I think we could call it SkyNet.

      Not gonna lie, I did unironically propose something very similar to this once at work, and began looking into it.

      Turns out I was too young to know what skynet is… I swear it would work though

    Here we see elon writing a contract to himself to push ai into doing only god knows what and take our money. No conflict of interest to see here, the plans are public in Elon’s brain for people to review and question.

    The most frustrating part is that both the republican senators and house members KNOW this makes no sense, but they don’t have the balls to say anything. Our government is so fucked.

      Every Republican in Congress that isn’t speaking up (so all of them) are literal traitors to our nation. And we’re paying them to be traitors.

    Oh boy, there are so many ways this can go wrong. Thought police that arrest you for a slightly out of context comment, or SkyNet decides that the best way to deal with a Narco boss is to start WW3.

    Is there anyone else out there that refuse to call them by that stupid fucking name? It’s like buying into a teenaged 4chan-dwelling edgelord’s sad joke.

    It only fuels their dumb bullshit.

    It’s a cop out and a dumb one. ai is inefficient, and bad at doing human jobs cause it’s not human, useful as a tool but not on its own

      AI would be great. AI could probably do a lot of human jobs.

      large language models are not AI. please stop calling them that. they’re literally the same kind of algorithm your phone keyboard uses for autocorrect, but scaled way up with a bunch of recursion. start typing, then let autocorrect fill in a few sentences. this is just a fancier, not even much more sophisticated, version of that.

      this isn’t about efficiency. this is about looting and lying. it’s about fucking up peoples lives, overwhelming them and frustrating them on a daily basis so they are too exhausted to care whats true, what’s human, or anything else but what daddy tells them.

        I know you’re joking, but it’s really dangerous to assume your enemy is an idiot. He isn’t stupid, he’s evil. If he were stupid he would not be the richest man in the world clawing still more gold into his hoard.

          No, stop.

          You are conflating wealth with intelligence.

          Do you know how easy it is to have money multiply itself in high enough quantities? It’s hard to overstate just how difficult it would be to have the wealth of Elon Musk and somehow not make money. You would have to make several multi-million dollar bad investments per day for decades, and even then, you’re still not likely to run out of cash any time soon. If Elon Musk did absolutely nothing for the rest of his life (and god, we could only hope) the interest and dividends his wealth passively generates for him would be enough for all of his children and grandchildren to live lavishly luxurious lives.

          Elon is not a genius. He’s actually a complete fucking moron who got very, very lucky and has excellent timing. If it were not for the success of PayPal in the early dotcom days, we would never have heard from this guy again.

            Also has been bailed out by Peter theil more than once. Theil is on the other hand extremely deft and cunning and straight up evil.

    All of DOGE “plans” seem like shit that was cooked up by immature teenagers and drug addled brains, because they are.
